Popular NFL Betting Teasers

You can select anywhere from 2 to 12 teams on your NFL teaser and how much you get paid goes up incrementally with the amount of teams that are added. You can make money betting NFL teasers, but you have to be prepared. For example, let’s say you have a three team teaser in mind with New England a 6 point favorite, Dallas a 3 point favorite and Pittsburgh a 9 point favorite. In this case the best NFL teaser would be the 6.5 point teaser where New England is teased to +.5, Dallas to +3.5, and Pittsburgh to -2.5. This gives you the best payoffs with your football bets and still makes your teaser attractive. You need to pay attention to exactly what NFL betting teaser you want to play. In this example had you played a 6 point teaser and Pittsburgh won by 3 points your entire teaser would lose because Pittsburgh was a push. Getting that half point would make you a winner with your football bets.

Professionals will play NFL teasers for various reasons. Some people will actually tease both sides of the same game in football bets. Let’s say the original NFL line on a game is -3. You could tease one side to +9.5 or +10 and tease the favorite to +3.5 or +4. This is happening more in the NFL these days because the NFL is a parity driven league and that means games are closer, therefore, teasing both sides of the same game has appeal.

If you are looking at betting teasers it is a good idea to focus on the NFL. The games are usually closer and that is what you want when betting a teaser. You want to be looking at games you think will be competitive. NFL betting teasers are something to consider this season as they are exciting and potentially profitable.
